amazing how well she fires up with fuel 
, anyways the prop saga is almost finished tried a 14x19 pitch and a 14.5x17 pitch lost mph , so i think trophy had it right on with 16x16 prop, the 15.5 x 15 gets me 20 and a smooth ride but rpm was creeping up to 5k so i didn't wanna change over revving , got a 16x16 coming. luckily i was able to return the props i had tried so i didint feel the hit for the store bought that didint work .the pitch on 14x19 would have kept me at 4k and thats fine but diameter was too small imho. the 14.5x17 was 3 mph slower then the 15.5x15 and i have to attribute that to diameter because in theory the 17 should have had more mph then a 15 pitch
